Mia Bella

Meet Mia Bella: Tiny. Fancy. Mildly Judgmental. 💅<br/><br/>Mia Bella is a 15-year-old, 9-pound Yorkshire Terrier who has recently entered her “retired heiress discovering the outside world” era, and honestly? She’s thriving.<br/><br/>After spending her entire life as a strictly indoor lady (we’re talking zero prior outdoor experience… yes, really), Mia Bella is now bravely exploring things like grass, fresh air, and leash walks. Is she a natural? No. Is she trying? Also… no. But she’s participating, and that’s what matters.<br/><br/>💖 Her Vibe:<br/>Imagine a very small, very polite British grandmother who enjoys naps, snacks, and silently judging your life choices. That’s Mia Bella.<br/><br/>✨ What You’ll Love:<br/><br/>Weighs less than your average housecat but carries herself like royalty<br/>Has a signature prance that says “peasants, you may admire me now”<br/>Rarely barks—she prefers quiet disapproval<br/>Gets along with dogs, cats, and humans (as long as they respect her brand)<br/>Excellent roommate: no chaos, no drama, just vibes<br/>LOVES food. Like… will absolutely try to rob her housemate blind if given the chance<br/><br/>🚽 Current Life Skills:<br/>Mia Bella is working on potty training and leash walking, which makes sense because two weeks ago she was like, “Outside? Absolutely not.” She’s improving daily, but she’ll need a patient human who understands she’s basically starting from scratch… at age 15… like a tiny, confused queen.<br/><br/>Also worth noting: due to her cough, she may have a little urinary dribble situation. We’re working on meds for that. She would appreciate you pretending it’s not happening. Or getting her a diaper with ruffles. If you have to protect, do it in style.<br/><br/>💊 Health Stuff (Because She’s a Senior Diva):<br/><br/>Collapsed trachea (aka: a little cough, managed with supplements and a harness—no chokers for this icon)<br/>A few teeth left, and honestly they’ve seen some things (dental coming soon)<br/>Monitoring kidney values down the road, but currently acting unbothered<br/>Takes a few basic meds and supplements to keep her feeling fabulous (approximate monthly spend $25-$30)<br/><br/>🛏 Lifestyle Preferences:<br/><br/>Enjoys long naps in private quarters (she values her beauty sleep)<br/>Can be left alone without throwing a party<br/>Doesn’t chase wildlife—far too dignified for that<br/>Moves at a top speed of approximately 2 mph, so no marathon training required<br/><br/>🎀 Fun Facts Because She Insisted:<br/><br/>Favorite snack: string cheese (a woman of taste)<br/>Hobby: baking scones and judging people<br/>Fashion icon: strongly advocating for the return of ponchos<br/>Walk-up song: ABBA – “Lay All Your Love On Me” (as it should be)<br/><br/>🏡 Ideal Home:<br/>A calm, loving home that appreciates a slow-paced, low-maintenance companion with a big personality packed into a tiny, slightly wobbly body.<br/><br/>Bonus points if you:<br/><br/>Don’t mind a little old-lady maintenance<br/>Respect her need for personal space (but also worship her appropriately)<br/>Are emotionally prepared to fall in love with a dog who prances like she owns the place<br/><br/>💬 Final Thoughts:<br/>Mia Bella is not here to hike mountains or learn agility. She is here to be adored, eat snacks, nap like it’s her job, and occasionally grace you with her presence.<br/><br/>And honestly? That feels like enough.<br/><br/>Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.<br/><br/>Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and then a meet and greet with the dog.
